Abashidze Accuses Authorities of Ballot Fraud

Adjarian leader Aslan Abashidze accused the central authorities of manipulation March 28 parliamentary election results.
 
Aslan Abashidze issued a statement on March 30 claiming that his party Revival Union has cleared 7% threshold necessary for securing seats in the Parliament.

“We are sure that the Central Election Commission under the pretext of violations would annul results at those polling stations, where the ruling party failed to gain votes,” statement issued by Aslan Abashidze reads.
 
According to the preliminary results of the Central Election Commission, the Revival Union received 6,13% of votes. These data include the votes from the Adjara Autonomous Republic.
